Nursing Home Abuse/Neglect
WEST VIRGINIA MEDIATION LAWYER; WEST VIRGINIA ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION LAWYER; WEST VIRGINIA NURSING HOME LAW MEDIATOR
Whether you are representing the plaintiff or the defendant in an action against a nursing home or other long term health care provider, you will want a mediator who has litigated and mediated these types of cases; a mediator who understands the statutory and regulatory basis for such actions and the variety of abuse and neglect allegations that arise in such cases, including:
- abuse and/or neglect
- assault and battery
- bedsores
- emotional abuse and/or neglect
- failure to supervise
- failure to protect
- financial exploitation
- inadequate staffing
- malnutrition
- medical neglect
- medical or physical restraint abuse
- medication errors
- personal hygiene neglect
- physical abuse
- severe dehydration
- substantial weight loss
- wrongful death
Some of these issues are addressed from time-to-time in this blog, Mediating Certainty, where I make posts concerning mediation generally and concerning important West Virginia legal developments.
